Today, Bosch Power Tools released its latest brand campaign – “What Hard Workers Deserve”, just ahead of Labor Day. Featuring the voice of actor and Bosch Power Tools user Nick Offerman, Bosch’s new broadcast and social media ads highlight how the brand’s premier tools are ready to support workers in the most extreme working conditions, from the top of a skyscraper to a wrestling ring.
